Faith Van Riel Poet Verse

Dream Scape

I lay in my bed
Eyes wide awake,

Hoping for sleep
The time it would take,

I find myself running
And I tripped then I fell,

Who was chasing me yelling?
I was scared I couldn’t tell,

I ran through the darkness
It felt like a race,

The tree branches scratching
And tearing my face,

I could hear all the footsteps
Catching up to me quick,

My heart was so pounding
It was making me sick,

Then I splashed through the water
My feet left the land,

The moment I realized
I was deep in quicksand,

I started to cry
For this moment I knew,

I was caught in this dream
Couldn’t wake up for you,

When hands started reaching
The dream in my head,

I finally woke up and 
Found sand in my bed.
